THE BARN @ Gurney Plaza, Penang

During one of our visits to Gurney Plaza, we decided to try out "THE BARN" which it is located at GP-170-G-43. Contact number: 04-2290967.

We have total of six persons dine in during our visit. After we browsing through the menu, all of my guests and hubby knew what to order except me. So I ask for some suggestion from the waiter and he suggest to me to take THE BARN famous pork ribs which they claimed it to be one of the famous dishes. Actually he did suggest me beef but I am not taking any beef so I opt for the ribs.

Before I elaborate more towards the food, let me brief you with the interior. Restaurant is fill with different kind of wines. The interior lighting is a bit like place for a drink. 

Beverages that we consume:

However, we did not order any alchohol but we opt for for some coffee instead:

Cappuccino

Ice Latte 

Food that we consume:

Caramelised roasted pork burger - RM27.26

One of my guests is having this and she claimed that the roast pork burger was nice.

The BARN famous pork pizza - RM32.90

Hubby opt for the pizza and decided to order the famous pizza from the house. Hubby did not quite enjoyed the pizza as he is not used to the cheese that used.

Crispy Pork Spaghetti - RM31.02

My gal is having this and she had the difficulty with the crispy pork as she claimed that it is a bit too tough on the crispy part of the pork.

Crispy Pork Penne - RM31.02

BBQ baby back pork ribs - RM55.46

At the end my sister in law and I were having this. As the one she ordered was out of stock. She reckon that the pork ribs she had is a bit tough and had difficulty cutting it.

However mine is not too bad but I would agree that the pork ribs are slightly too dry to our likings. 

Actually before ordered this ribs I did asked the waiter how big was the serve and I was told that it is for one person. It is actually good for 2 persons I think. If we knew the serve is that big we could had share. Luckily, my hubby helped out with the ribs. 

Overall, the services are very attentive. Whoever finished their food, the waiter or waitress will come to clear your plates and drinks.

FoOd PaRaDiSe Review:

After last spring cleaning, we decided to go out for dinner. We have been to this place few times, but I did not blog about it. For this visit, we realised that they have changed their menu. Some of the foods we tried were no longer in the menu. But they introduce some new choices too.

Watermelon Juice - RM6

Cappuccino - RM6.80

Honey Lime Juice - RM6

Table settings of Northern Ribs

Piri Piri Chicken - RM18.80

Basically, it is a whole roasted chicken thigh with spicy piri piri sauce. Well be warned though it is very spicy dishes with the bird's eye chili in it. However, I feel that it is something different which will surely open up your appetite as it also include lemon and herbs on it.

Balsamic N' Onion Ribs - RM29.80

I believed that because of the balsamic, the ribs are very tender. The ribs also infused with homemade onion sauce.

Flaming spicy ribs - RM19.70

We was introduced to the new flavour of rib. Was told that it is a bit spicy for those who cannot take spicy food. It turn out to be not too spicy for us except for my princess. 

Top CheeZzy Pizza - RM23.80

This turn out to be my princess favourite pizza for the night. She loves cheese very much and with the pineapple and tomatoes also her favourite topping. It also came with some olives.

BBQ Pizza - RM24.80

This pizza topping came with mince ribs, bacon, pineapple, olives, tomatoes, BBQ sauce and cheese.

FoOd PaRaDiSe verdict:

Overall, it's a nice place to dine in. Cosy ambience's, lovely and friendly attendant. We enjoyed their ribs and pizza. Unfortunately, we did not have the chance to try out their pork knuckle which you need to made reservation one day before. Perhaps, the next visit.
